The Pay of European Legislators.

From the PaH Neil Gazette.
Some curious statistics have been pub
isbed concerning the salaries given to
members of Parliament in various foreign
nations. To begin with France, the Sena-
tors and Deputies receive the same re-
uneration-namely, & sterling day.
In Belgium each member of the Chamber
of Representatives, gets 81 a month In
Denmark the members of the Laudsthing
are paid lbs. a day. In Portugal the
Peers and Commons are given the same
sum, which is c6, a year. In Sweden the
members of the Diet receive eG6 for
session of four months, but they have to
refund fine of 12s. for every days alb
sence. That is not a bad idea. In Swift
Zerand the members of the National
Council get los. per diem, and those of
the Council of State from 6s. to los. In
Norway the members of the Storthing
receive AS. a day during the session,
which lasts about six weeks. In Italy
the Senators and Deputies are not paid,
but they are allowed travelling expenses
and certain privileges. In Spain the
members of the Cortes are also unpaid,
but enjoy many advantages and immuni-
ties. In Greece the Senators get go
month and the Deputies Go. In Ger
many the Representatives. receive an
average of los. day. In Austria the pay
is the same as in France, 81 a day Eng
land is the only country where Members
of Parliament are not only unpaid, but
have no right to privileges.

shall accompany the power of appoint

This is not vague rhetoric; it is def
mite and Ineligible proposition. Then
the party is opposing the actual corrup-
ton and outrage for which it offers a
practical remedy. Ga the other hand,
the Democratic party in Maryland has
declared frankly for the spoils system,
which produces the corruption. 1t would
be lameutable if the President should be

carrying on the cutlery business said q
manufacturer recently to a reporter fol
the .HtH and Express 'Instead of i'm
porting knives, scissors, razors, shears,
and scythes, we are now exporting them.
You will find various tools, such as saws,
chisels, and planes of American make, in

glish cities"
'ln the manufacture of what kind OF
cutlery do Americans e2 cel?'
"knife blades, razor blades, and axes.
In the latter the United States has made
such advances that it excels all other
countries excepting, perhaps, Canada.
LII 1872 there was imported into the coun-
try cutlery to the value of SIC, 800, 900,
which was cut down to 5000, 600 in 1882
In 1882 about $3.50 900 worth of domes-
| tic goods were sent abroad. Last year
the imports were less than $4,000, and
the exports were more than $2,000,000.
GOOD table knives are made of iron
and steel welded together. The blade is
of steel and the shoulders and the part
that goes into the handle, called techi-
nally the tang, are of iron. The blade is
made from sheet or cast steel; the tang
is forged from bar iron. Knife blades
and other small articles are usually
forged into shape while still attached to
the bar, which serves for the workmen
to hold them by. Two men are en-
ployed in forging such work. The prn-
cipal workman, or foreman, as he is
sometimes called, has a small hammer of
from two to four pounds in weight, while
the Zimmerman Yields the sledge ham
mer, weighing from ten to fifty pounds.
The foreman directs the Zimmerman,
whose blows merely follow those of the
small directing hammer. In drawing
down or reducing bar both in length
and width the flat face of the hammer
is used, but when the Length or breadth
only is to be extended the narrow edge
of the hammer is used.

by hammering the blade on small
round-faced anvil. The notch or nail
hole in a pennyknife is struck with

care cheap knives made in the same
manner as the more expensive?'
NO; common knives are made en-
tirely of iron, aud the difference in price
arises not merely from the difference in
the cost of material but from the greater
facility of working. Forks are wrought
into shape as though a single prong was
all that was necessary. They are then
shaped out with stamping die
